Word of the day - "Perfinicky"

For no particular reason, I woke up today with the words "Perfidy" and "Perfinicky" in mind. Why on earth I would be thinking of these 2 particular words is as confusing to me as to you...

By definition, "Perfidy" is "a form of
deception, in which one side promises to act in good faith (e.g. by raising a flag of surrender) with the intention of breaking that promise once the enemy has exposed himself (e.g. by coming out of cover in order to capture the surrendering forces)." - Wikipedia,

Perfinicky on the other hand does not seem to have a readily available definition online. I'm guessing it means "fussy". Perfinicky was the foremost word in my mind today so from today onwards I have decided to use in liberally in my conversations (no matter what it means!). Blogger highlights this word as well when you run spellcheck :(
